I have been waffling on contacting them, but I'm certainly getting close! I'll give it a few more days, then probably break that glass!

Y'know, you might be onto something with that...the thought certainly has crossed my mind. I never had the slightest hiccup in the transmission with this truck and to be honest, most trouble free vehicle I have ever owned up till this event. It's why this gets under the skin even more so...

Update for those of you following along at home. 6 weeks since the original problem date and still no new transmission yet. 4/8 Oringinal issues began Multiple trips to the dealer and 3-4 days in the shop 4/21 - Quote from the service writer..."We will order you a new transmission, might...

Sure rhing. I've been happy with them. Rock solid, I just would use some anti seize on the hardware or get some stainless replacements if you are in a rust prone area like me.

I went with the thule rapid podium towers with square bars but you can go with whatever style bar you want. You need the older style landing pads for T tracks kit#3101 for the rapid podiums. They have a new style tower that just came out earlier this year ( can't recall the model), that uses...

No worries! I agree with you. I hope this whole thread helps someone out there! Toss the service manuals at your nearest service advisor (please don't)

Agreed and thanks for the suggestion! It's seems to be fairly bad practice for most car owners to not get reliable service intervals spelled out in maintenance guides. The whole meme of "did you read the manual" really goes out the window here. The answer was yes, and I was wrong to do so...

My issue is that aside from online advice from good folks such as yourself, Ford is pretty adamant about the 150k when I have asked in the past. Lesson learned

4/23 ***Update*** in the words of Bender...welp she's boned. Dealer is currently processing a complete transmission replacement under the warranty. To be honest I'm not sure they did any additional diagnostics or if the labor rate at this point isn't worth the time. Was assured this is a...

I had originally asked for a drain and fill when it was suggested . The service advisor told me that they only do flushes there, which I am sure is a lip service mark up line.

Just putting this out into the ether as a PSA. I figured I would document this journey for anyone interested...I'm a heavy believer in internet bias and that people only mention the bad things and not the 99% of the "everything is good" times. Background I took my 23 XLT FX4 to the dealer...

I pulled out of my 2025 hybrid AWD order as well. The suppressed trade in values on my 2023 fx4 with the open recall, the increased price, the huge downgrade in buttons/over reliance on the infotainment were all too much to justify the 7% interest rates for. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only...

Not to highjack the thread, but I have to ask a dumb question. How did you get the trim pieces off of the rear facing side of the rail? I feel like I am going to break something if I pry any harder. Trying to figure out if the 3 screws near the drain hoses do anything.
